<\/p>\nThe 40th anniversary of missionary work held by UBF was held at Namseoul University in Cheonan in Korea and in Chicago during the same period (July 24-28).\u00a0Such a separate missionary convention has never happened before in UBF history.\u00a0What was the reason why UBF, which was created in Korea in 1961 and has been a unique missionary organization for the past 40 years, has opened a missionary conference separately.\u00a0It is the UBF, which is called one of the most closed missionary groups, as the wind of reform that is gradually blowing on Korean society and Korean churches.<\/p>\n
Last spring, the UBF began reforming itself and it is now spreading enough to separate missionary contests this year.\u00a0Chicago is where the founder of the UBF and the current world governor, Missionary Samuel, is located.\u00a0The so-called “Headquarters”, headquartered in Hyoje-dong, Jongno-gu, and the corporate board of directors, called the missionaries dispatched to Chicago, and the so-called “reformers” held a competition in Cheonan.<\/p>\n
The missionary conventions held in Cheonan clearly confirm the meaning and direction of UBF reform.\u00a0UBF outside instructors took the lead in the 40th anniversary event, which was held under the theme of “College Mission 21, New Start”.\u00a0Past missionary conventions were dominated by the ambition of encouraging UBF missionary missionaries to report and encourage their work in each area.\u00a0This year’s Chicago Mission Conference does not go far.\u00a0However, in the case of Cheonan, Dr. Robert Coleman, an American evangelist of Trinity, who is not related to UBF, and Rev. Kim Sang-Bok, president of Torch Trinity New University College, took on the role of principal.\u00a0Jung Ho-jun Lee Tae-woong Lee Jong-wook Yoon Kyung-ro Kim Hyung-tae Kang Young-aan Jung Chang-\u00a0Some of them have a very negative perception of UBF.\u00a0Two UBF graduates, including Professor Lim Su-soo, Hannam University, and Peter Chang,\u00a0Of course, the Bible was strengthened by the inner shepherds.\u00a0It is really an exceptional class of teachers.<\/p>\n

| \u25b2 Pastor Ahn Byung-ho, who gave his first lecture on the first day.\u00a0He \nwas the victim of the UBF First Reform Movement \nin 1976. \u24d2 News & Joe Kim Seung-bum<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Above all, Pastor Ahn Byung-ho, who is the co-president of the Gyeonggi-do, and ESF chairman, is the first lecturer on the first day.\u00a0Pastor Ahn was a key figure in the UBF reform in ’76, but was effectively removed from the organization.\u00a0Is not the ESF a missions agency created by reformers who have split from UBF?\u00a0Pastor Ahn repeatedly said in a lecture about the voices mentioned above that “I did not think I would meet again like this in 25 years” in various places of the lecture.\u00a0He said, “Though it is not forgiveness yet, but God works, someday God will forgive all things and one day may come,” he said.<\/p>\n Inviting outside instructors demonstrates a humble attitude of opening the mind and ears and listening to the voice outside UBF.\u00a0In the meantime, UBF’s contribution to the mission history of the institute has been negligible, but it has been increasingly unbiblical and impersonal in an overly closed and authoritative atmosphere.\u00a0However, the new style of leadership, which can lead the ministry of the institute in the 21st century on the biblical and theological basis, has been demanded relatively steadily.<\/p>\n In fact, this kind of atmosphere has appeared in various forms since the beginning of this year.\u00a0In the case of the Seoul Myeongryun Center, Pastor Chung Caleb delivered a message criticizing himself inside the UBF at the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the center last spring.\u00a0He also invited a missionary who was known to be an outsider, and he heard the voices of outsiders about the UBF.\u00a0In addition, in June, we held college student retreats nationwide for the first time.\u00a0Also inviting outside lecturers such as Pastor Kim Jin-hong of Dooree Church and Dr. Kim Jin-kyung, President of Yanbian University of Education is also part of the open flow.\u00a0Also, joining the Academy Evangelization Council and participating in the Christian Ethics Campaign after a long effort is a phenomenon that makes it very unusual for those who are familiar with the closure of UBF.<\/p>\n On the first day of the missionary meeting, shepherd Kim Yoan, the chairperson of the conference, instead of presenting the opening message to celebrate the 40th anniversary, reflects on the past 40 years, while also introducing new paradigm, new community, new faith confession, new mission strategy and theology, “I have to say that it is time to take a step forward.”\u00a0Kim emphasized new leadership in particular.\u00a0He described this as “incarnational leadership.”\u00a0The emphasis on incarnational leadership in the opening message implies that there has been a significant problem with UBF leadership so far.\u00a0In a closed structure, unbiblical, impersonal, non-autonomous, and unfamiliar leadership solidified as a result, and as a result, they are contents that are naturally exposed to various evils.<\/p>\n
